Some of us have this addiction to other things - perfume, clothes, home appliances. Mine is books. Thank God for public libraries and Kindle Unlimited!
@@stevenwolff6866 That's not a bad thing. I live in NYC, and to me going into Manhattan for "a day in the city" basically means the Barns and Noble in Times Square and lunch at a low-budget food court or fast-food restaurant. I prefer books to museums or theaters.
I remember my mom telling me that back in the 1950's Ladies would get all dolled up to go grocery shopping. hat , white gloves, and a pants suit. hair coifed just so. now its sweats, a dirty tee shirt and a head full of curlers. with 5 screaming kids in tow. men wore Brooks brother's suits well groomed , with a hat, matching shoes /belt and looking stylish. now. well pretty much the same except for the curlers.....
Keep in mind, these prices... $49.50 is in 2024's economy would be closer to $490 now. So WHERE was Lucy Ricardo going that shes spending near $495 on a hat. And all her dresses...

I have Half Price Books a mile away...an inexpensive addiction but still, I just can't stay away.
Mine is vintage cookbooks…the older and more unique the better. I can’t control myself…so I try very hard not to “just look for fun”.
Barnes & Noble has become my 2nd home

I definitely have a book addiction.
Madge Blake, the salesperson in Jeri's Hat Shop, played Mrs. Harriet Cooper on the 1960's Batman TV series.
and MRS MONDELLO
I wish we still wore hats. Men and women both looked so stylish. What happened to us?

Baby Boomers happened and became dirty hippies.
Walmart moved in
People used to dress up when they traveled on airplanes, trains and ships
Americans became yobs and slobs
The hat shop lady went on to play Larry Mondello's mother on Leave it to Beaver.
Plus she was her Aunt Anastacia in “The Long Long Trailer”.
@@friendofdorothy9376 Plus she played Bruce Wayne's Aunt On Batman
Lucy is so cute. I can't help it.
She always acts like he's going to hit her.
I don’t think she was acting 🥺

five hundred dollars on a dummy act really that's crazy. At least the dummy dozen eat.
Jesus loves you!
